Fresh From the Farm Orchard Renovation Guidelines
General farm orchards should plow the sod in fall to allow decay and sunlight next spring. Avoid deep plowing to protect roots. In spring, prune dead and diseased limbs and thin tops for light. Cover large wounds with lent paint mixed with lamp black. Apply stable manure in winter or fall, twelve to twenty loads per acre. If unavailable, use chemicals: nitrate of soda five pounds per tree, tankage fifteen pounds, bone meal twenty pounds, and potash ash as directed. Maintain clean cultivation until midsummer.
